    This model is comparable with Philips 435C. There is also a model Aristona H140A for AC mains only. Type H140C is like type H140A except it has a power resistor instead of the autotransformer and a plug-in contactor instead of rectifier tube UY1(N).

    The model with the -20 suffix is supposed to be intended for the Belgian market. It is not known if the suffix was reproduced on the typeplates.

    Attention: this model contains an autotransformer: chassis connected to the mains !
